World’s Richest Beggar

Bharat Jain, an Indian beggar known as the ‘world’s richest beggar,’ has an inspiring and intriguing life story. Born and raised in poverty in the bustling city of Mumbai, he faced significant financial struggles during his early years. Despite his hardships, Bharat managed to get enrolled in a school; however, due to the dire financial situation of his family, he had to leave school in between and turned to begging on the streets of Mumbai. He is often seen begging at various locations like Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus and Azad Maidan in Mumbai, where he is spotted begging for 8 to 10 hours daily. Remarkably, his daily efforts yield an impressive collection of around Rs 2,000-2,500, resulting in a monthly income of approximately Rs 75,000. With the money, he has managed to acquire a two-bedroom flat in Mumbai valued at around Rs 1.2 crore. Additionally, he owns two shops in Thane, which generate a monthly rent of about Rs 30,000. Bharat resides with his family in a 1 BHK duplex residence in Parel. Despite the counsel of his family members, who always suggest that he should quit begging, Bharat chooses to persist in his profession. His determination has led to some significant achievements, including providing his two children to study at a convent school in Mumbai. Furthermore, Bharat’s family runs a stationery shop in the city.
